According to each one of the authors this week, what are the particular challenges enslaved women face? How do they prove that enslavement is worse for women? Then, think about the intended audiences of each of these texts (they are similar but the communicator’s methods vary) and the message they are conveying to them. What methods or proofs do they use–emotions, logic, credibility, evidence, tone, or some combination–to make their major points? Be sure you point out examples from each text for this week.
